(усічених) words or roots of words: англ. fan(tasy)+(maga)zine =

                                  Onomatopoeia  (sound-imitation).  Words  coined  by  this
                            interesting type of word-building are made by imitating different
                            kinds of sounds that may be produced by animals, birds, insects,
                            human being and inanimate objects: англ. to bark, cock-a-doodle-
                            doo; укр. гавкати, кукуріку.

                            for. bye-bye) or with a variation of the root-vowel or consonant as
                            in ping-pong, chit¬chat.
                                  Back-formation  (reversion)  is  rather  productive  type  of
                            word-for mation in English, where many short words are inferred
                            from  longer  words:  англ.  greed  —  greedy,  to  house-clean  —
                            house- cleaner, own — owning, укр. крик — кричати, говір —
                            говорити.
